Update (May 19):  I made a print at QueLab hackerspace in Albuquerque.

Less than stellar print

I didn't get the best print.  I used Akua ink on Hahnemuhle paper, and hand printed with the small Iron Frog baren.

I used Intaglio Mars Black Akua ink, with Akua Tack Thickner.  I never did achieve the nice snap sound when rolling the brayer over the ink, even on newsprint.  Also I did not wet the paper first.

Still, the print is good enough to give me hope.  I think this linoleum plate could make a nice print if printed properly.
